1966 Kit Companion surprises us again!!!!

[Wade and Lisa Long]

We have been working very hard to finish this remodel so we can use it on our next trip. My wife finished re sewing all the cushion's, I layed down a new floor over the solid old floor. Replaced one water line that was cracked, replaced the toilet,my wife sewed all new curtins. While we were cleaning out the cupboards we found a 1966 newspaper (The Oregonian), The orginal owners paper work from when it was bought new in 1966, all the owners manuals for the fridge, furnace, stove, and toilet. Also the Kit Companion trailer wiring diagram for trailer lites. This was great because when I tried to wire it to my pickup the nite before I could not make any sense of the wiring at all. In 1966 they did not follow the same color code for certain wire's as they do today. Yesterday I used a 46 year old wire diagram to wire to my truck, believe it or not everything including the electric brakes worked. We will finish the painting on the out side along with resealing all the windows today. Wheel bearings will get repacked and brakes inspected on monday. Tuesday we leave for Seattle. I promise to put up pics soon! Wade & Lisa
